This was the week that Apple hit a market cap of $1 trillion.
Without question, the data point of the week, if not the year?
The pipeline bottlenecks in North America are really causing a problem for western Canada and west Texas (the Permian). The largest crude oil producer in Canada has had to curtail production in Alberta because of the pipeline constraints. COP has temporarily exited the Permian. EOG, at the end of the week, said it would be cutting back on efforts in the Permian. Remember: it was the former CEO of EOG who suggested the Bakken play is coming to an end, as far as excitement / growth is concerned.
It's probably not a surprise that "pipelines" are "beating estimates." Link here.
It's hard to believe, it didn't feel like it, but apparently Brent crude had its biggest monthly drop in two years.
I think there were not less than three graphics that will compete for "graphic of the year":
